| 11 |
| 12 Adblock Browser requires filter lists to block ads. A default filter list - Easy
List - based on your browser's language settings is automatically activated whe
n you install Adblock Browser. It blocks ads from the most popular (often Englis
h language-based) websites. However, it does not block ads on less popular natio
nal websites. For example, if you live in Germany you should subscribe to the na
tional German filter list. |
